An average movie

Of course, I wasn’t expecting much from this flick but, somehow, I was still curious to check if it was really as bad as it looked. Well, it wasn’t really good, that’s for sure. Apparently, they thought it would be a good idea to surf on Taylor Lautner’s new popularity but it didn’t really work out and this flick was a flop. Since he is still very young, I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt but, at that point, the guy is just not ready yet to lead an action flick like this one. The sad thing is that the story actually had some potential. Imagine you’re a teenager, you fell don’t you fit into this world (like most teenagers) but, some day by accident, you discover your face on a missing persons website. What do you do then? So, there were some good opportunities there and even though the action genre was not the most interesting option, they could have pretty much followed the Bourne franchise formula and add a teenage twist but, unfortunately, you got no depth whatsoever, not much character development and, instead, some rather underwhelming action scenes. To conclude, even though the whole thing actually had some potential, it remains a rather weak action flick and it is not really worth a look, I'm afraid.
